NEW YORK, NY, Nov 27, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
BlazeMeter, provider of the Apache JMeter(TM) based load testing
platform, today released five new features to their already rich load
testing cloud. The suite of new features further simplifies load
testing just in time for the expected rush of traffic over the
holiday season.

- Test Behind the Firewall
Use your VPN credentials to integrate a
series of our dedicated load servers into your private network.

- Smart Functional Testing
Analysis of .JTL files to assess errors
or failed transactions of any tests run using a JMeter script to
ensure assertions are met.

- Master/Slave Reporting
Test your website and aggregate multi-geo
locations results into a single report OR run numerous tests, each
executing a different script from a different geo-location and then
aggregate results into a single report.

"It's crunch time from now through the holiday season and sites are
scrambling to prepare. Potential customers are typically lost when a
page takes even as little as five seconds to load. So, at a time of
year when traffic is at its most intense, effective load testing is
critical to ensure that sites can cope with the highest volumes of
visitors. Ultimately it can save them from losing customers and money
when competition is fiercest," said Alon Girmonsky, BlazeMeter
Founder & CEO.

He continued, "Companies are recognizing the urgency for regular
performance tests to keep their own products viable online. Our new
features respond to the growing needs of developers and we will
continue to provide cutting edge features to optimize and simplify
load testing for all. We provide developers faster and easier methods
to implement a serious load testing protocol based on best
practices."
As an added holiday promotion, users who sign up for BlazeMeter's
Annual plans have a limited time offer for the holidays. Users can
save 20% (compared to monthly subscription plans) They can load test
50% more concurrent users, use double the load engines and receive
20% more testing hours.
